Webmin's Bind8 module supports Bind 9 and views. O'Reilly makes a great book for Bind and it covers views. Use these resources and you may figure out what you need to do.

If all you need to do is provide authoritative responses for multiple domains you can do that within the default config. If you want to only allow responses for authoritative zones try some of the info at this link: http://www.cymru.com/Documents/secure-bind-template.html
